Chicken Soup for the Soul

 N O U R I S H

If you've ever been to an Australian Chinese restaurant, you've probably experienced chicken and corn soup. I tried to make it at home for years but was never able to replicate the delicate balance and absolute deliciousness of the resturant versions until I met Mandy. 

Mandy is one of those amazing people who make you feel like nothing is ever too much trouble. When I was pregnant, she came visit us in Hong Kong. I had hyperemesis gravidarum, the morning sickness that lasts all day every day. As soon as the saw the state I was in, she went a bought the ingredients to her chicken and corn soup. The joy was instant, the releif immediate. It became my magical broth, making me feel comforted and nourished.  

Incredibly simple to make, it's an easy dinner that doubles as an even easier lunch. I like to make it with this organic bone broth from Little Farms to up the nutrtional impact. Bone broth is known for its anti-inflammatory benefits, can help improve bone and joint health. It's also thought to improve the quality of your sleep and I'll take that!
